US Laser Destroyer

Ever since the 1960s, the U.S. Navy has been developing a wide array of impressive laser weapons. In May 2020, the USS Portland showed off one of the most powerful yet.

The Technology Maturation Laser Weapon System Demonstrator successfully shot down an unmanned aerial vehicle with its laser weapon during a series of tests at Pearl Harbor.

Exponentially cheaper than projectile weapons, could even be used to destroy other ships. The scalable power of these laser weapon systems remains a deeply classified secret.
